I spotted an update on Elizabeth Turnbull’s tiny house yesterday. Elizabeth is the Yale University graduate student who has built a solar tiny house that will serve as her home for two years while she’s attending Yale’s School of Forestry and Environmental Studies. Her tiny house measures 8′ by 18′ and is build on the back of a flatbed trailer, has a simple shed roof, photovoltaic panels, and a composting toilet. There’s also a video of Elizabeth giving a tour of her tiny house See the video and read the full article. Photo credit Alan Chaniewski.
Update: Sadly the video was taken offline. 
I’d really love to read about this, but the link just takes you to the hartford courant’s web page index, which fails to list Elizabeth Turnbull on the page you’re taken to and also can’t find her when entered as a search term. Perhaps posting a direct link to the article would be more useful.
Sadly it looks like the video was removed from the website I had linked to.
